She took a huge gulp of her hot chocolate. Maybe she just didn't have enough chocolate in her blood yet. That must be it. Chocolate made her smart.

She leaned forward a bit, taking slow sips and blowing on the liquid every now and again to cool it down. Her eyes first feel on the olive colored tree, erm, bush, erm, shrub. However, the first olive colored tree that popped into her mind was far from what was in front of her. Were those...little stars? Could they pick those bubbles and take the stars back to the dorms with them?

After a few moments, Kurumi raised her hand. She thought that she recognized them from the description of a plant she had come across in her studying for her OWLs and, well, given the time of the lesson it all seemed to fit. "Professor, are both of those Norandola plants?" If so, Professor Bentley was being very very tricky.

So he waited for the other students to answer the question and when he heard Kurumi saying Norandola he looked at her with a surprised expression before looking back at the bush. Mweh, he'd never heard of that name before. Drinking from his chocolate, the Slytherin placed the empty cup beside him on the ground before picking up the second one.

She had heard of norandola in her reading but what had she read about them...she remembered that they were said to grow in the moonlight. "I also think they are norandola." Ella said with a nod, happy she had been studying a lot lately.

Since she didn't know what they were, she quickly wrote down the answer in her journal before looking up to see whether the Professor confirmed that they were correct or not.

"Professor," she started, "are those pomegranate?" Which is NOT possible since she knows that pomegranate plants don't look like that.

Besides the colour, everything seemed to be the same. Err. But still, the third year couldn’t figure out if those really were from the same species or not. Erm. Whatever, the young Ravenclaw told herself and then heard what Kurumi said. That was probably the right answer.

That was it! That was why those plants looked very much the same, but still had a few particularities- because it depend on who plants them. Then, that was why the lesson was held in the evening. Because something happened to them when it was moonlight, but Gwendolyn couldn’t actually remember what that was. Humm. In this case, chances are those are BOTH Norandola plants.

Anyway, the answer had already been said, and Gwen knew she couldn’t have figured it out on her own, so she simply waited patiently for Professor Bentley’s response and for further questions. Anyhow- it should be getting easier, since it was… almost clear what kind of bushes those two were.

Maybe he should read more books about Herbology. Nevertheless, the young badger raised his hand up in the air. "Professor, are those Spiky Bush?"
